Bourke Road in Ettalong Beach is scheduled for renewal works following representations made by Federal Member for Robertson, Dr Gordon Reid MP.

A response provided by Central Coast Council has outlined that Bourke Road between Memorial Road and Barrenjoey Road, has been assessed using Council’s advanced Pavement Management System.

Following this assessment, renewal works have been identified and planned in the first half of the 2023-24 financial year.

Federal Member for Robertson, Dr Gordon Reid MP, says this news is an excellent outcome for the hundreds of motorists that use the road every day.

“When I am in the community, talking with people about what is important to them, Bourke Road is frequently raised as an issue on the Peninsula”, Dr Reid said.

“I made representations to Central Coast Council and Administrator, Rik Hart, and urged action to address this road”.

“I am pleased that through my advocacy, the community has a response from Central Coast Council, that says that renewal works are planned”, Dr Reid said.

“I have individually written to every resident living on Bourke Road between Memorial Road and Barrenjoey Road, to inform them of this information”.

“I encourage people with road issues on the Central Coast to contact my office”, Dr Reid said.

“I look forward to continuing to advocate on behalf of residents on the Central Coast across all areas”.
